Don't take it in the first place because IQ tests are meaningless.

>IQ test
>strategy
Someone who wastes his life getting a high score on an IQ test (which is meaningless since he prepared for it) can't be anything but a brainlet.

correct
>because IQ tests are meaningless.
Incorrect. The actual reason to not take an IQ test is to keep the delusions of grandeur that keep you alive, going.

Yeah it's magic sauce that separates someone like Von Neumann from a high school dropout.

>doesn't understand probability

Youre not supposed to have strategies or study for them. That defeats the whole purpose of the test.

>Psychometricians generally regard IQ tests as having high statistical reliability.[9][56] A high reliability implies that – although test-takers may have varying scores when taking the same test on differing occasions, and although they may have varying scores when taking different IQ tests at the same age – the scores generally agree with one another and across time. Like all statistical quantities, any particular estimate of IQ has an associated standard error that measures uncertainty about the estimate. For modern tests, the standard error of measurement is about three points[citation needed]. Clinical psychologists generally regard IQ scores as having sufficient statistical validity for many clinical purposes.[22][57][58] In a survey of 661 randomly sampled psychologists and educational researchers, published in 1988, Mark Snyderman and Stanley Rothman reported a general consensus supporting the validity of IQ testing. "On the whole, scholars with any expertise in the area of intelligence and intelligence testing (defined very broadly) share a common view of the most important components of intelligence, and are convinced that it can be measured with some degree of accuracy." Almost all respondents picked out abstract reasoning, ability to solve problems and ability to acquire knowledge as the most important elements.[59]
>Mackintosh 2011, p. 169 "after the age of 8–10, IQ scores remain relatively stable: the correlation between IQ scores from age 8 to 18 and IQ at age 40 is over 0.70."

CONFIRMED, BRANDON HAS A LOW IQ AND HE'S HAD THIS EXPLAINED (AND AGREED WITH IT) BEFORE!
FUCK OFF BRANDON!

Get a good nights sleep and have a large hardy breakfast. If you have test anxiety let you're administrator know

>>9824523
Just took your stupid fucking GIQtest and scored a 137.

Easy to place people in a box with your racist, antiquated metric though. Try harder next time, kiddo

>>9824571
Omg, that isn't me you fucking retard.
You agreed with IQ in another thread, you spastic.
Stop posting, and stop posting your IQ when trying to disagree with it, you edgy high schooler.
Fuck, off, Brandon.

Go take a test derived from Raven's Progressive Matrices in person, with a psychologist and then find out your real results.
Pro-tip, you're probably nearer 100, than 144.

>>9824579
>You agreed with IQ in another thread, you spastic.
Wrong again.

>>9824581
>blah blah blah Raven's

So, is that the only IQ test you consider valid, then? Is the Raven's somehow superior to other tests? Your arguments make no sense whatsoever and are starting to become contradictory.

Sorry I'm smarter than you. Like I said in another thread, I wouldn't even post here if it wasn't so hilarious watching neckbeards foam at the mouth in irrational anger.
